Afterward, make your way to Cai Beo wharf where you are embarking the private boat around noon time.


We follow the boat's cruise itinerary:

12:00 - On arrival at Cai Beo wharf of Cat Ba Island. Get on your private junk, enjoy a welcome drink, move around to learn about the boat, and check into your cabin before cruising.
12:15 - Pull up the anchor and start your cruise. The wooden junk firstly winds its way by a fishing village toward Lan Ha Bay. Not much different from Halong Bay featured with hundreds of limestone islands and islets. Lan Ha is smaller but the karst sheer islands stay close together, this makes Lan Ha Bay become the best place for kayaking and swimming activities.
13:30 - Anchor is dropped in the middle of the bay for lunchtime. If the weather is nice enough, your lunch will be served on the top deck where you are able to enjoy the scenery during your lunch the best.
14:30 - After lunch, continue on the cruise to Tay Keo cave to paddle around on kayaks to explore this beautiful part of the bay and the cave. Take a swim on a tiny beach if the weather permits.
16:00 - The junk is gently moving toward the night place. Take it easy and enjoy the sunset over the bay.
19:00 - Enjoy set-menu dinner and stay overnight on the junk.
